Week 12 Byes: Bengals, Bills, Falcons, Jaguars, Jets and Saints - welcome to the bye-pocalypse!
Here are some players to consider picking up this week, if available, to get ahead of the other managers in your league. These players include potential bye-week fill-ins, players who are returning from injury, and defenses to look at in advance.
Beat the Waiver Wire: No-Brainers
In most leagues, these guys aren't available. But if you're fortunate enough to see them on the waiver wire, grab them.
QB Bo Nix, Denver Broncos (73% rostered on Sleeper)
Caleb who? Jayden what? Could the best rookie quarterback actually be Bo Nix? Many managers had the presence of mind to grab Nix, knowing how good his schedule was leading up to and during the fantasy playoffs. The only thing to be aware of is that the Broncos have a bye in Week 14, so make sure to have a pivot option. Nix is currently the QB7 and has the pleasure of facing the Bengals in championship week.
Beat the Waiver Wire: Quarterbacks
Will Levis, Tennessee Titans (15% rostered on Sleeper)
It is tough out there for quarterbacks, and I mentioned Levis last week. He was average last week (and I am not suggesting he will be the QB1 in a week), but if you are the Lamar Jackson or Jayden Daniels manager and have that Week 14 bye looming, you need to prepare now. The Titans play the Jags that week.
